Linguistic+Dimensions+Study

=__Linguistic Dimensions Study (20%) __= There is much more to language and literacy than reading the great works and writing a good essay. However, these skills are often what is valued in school. In this project, you will explore the ways that students use linguistics, language, and literacies in and out of school. You will work to find ways to bridge the gap between the “local literacies” of the students’ home community and the academic literacies valued in school. This study will require traditional methods of research (library, journals, etc.) and methods of “teacher-research” that we will discuss in class.
